About Compass: Personal Safety
Instead of a faceless monitoring service, your friends are your safety network β
real people who get an alert with your live location the moment you need help.
Walking home at night, meeting someone from a dating app, riding home alone in
an Uber, hiking a trail solo, or just wanting someone to know you got in safe:
Compass keeps trusted friends looking out for you.
β KEY FEATURES
π SOS emergency alerts
β’ Send an SOS with one tap, or hands-free with your voice ("Compass help")
β’ Your contacts get your live GPS location instantly
β’ A panic button that reaches real people who care about you
β° Safety check-ins
β’ Set a check-in for a night out, a late commute, or a trip
β’ Miss it, and your contacts are alerted automatically
β’ A missed check-in never goes unnoticed
π Date safety
β’ Record who you're meeting and where, and add photos before you go
β’ Assign friends as date guardians β they get the details up front
β’ Verified Check-in: ending a date needs a live selfie a friend confirms, so
nobody can force you to check in against your will
πΆ Take Me Home
β’ Start a protected walk to a saved place like Home or Work
β’ Friends can follow your route on a live map
β’ Don't arrive on time and they are alerted automatically
π Compass Driving
β’ For riding alone in an Uber, Lyft or taxi after a night out
β’ Save the driver and vehicle details, or just import a screenshot
β’ Check in when you're home; if you don't, your contacts get the ride details
π₯Ύ Adventure mode
β’ Share your trip plan and intended route with the friends watching out for you
β’ Includes a search-and-rescue folder that can be handed straight to responders
π Live location sharing (W.A.Y. β "Where Are You")
β’ Share your real-time location with a friend when you choose to
β’ Turn it off per friend, at any time
π Tamper-proof safety record
β’ Every SOS and check-in is kept in a Black Box history you can export
β’ A record no one can quietly edit or erase
β HOW COMPASS WORKS
1. Create a free account and connect with friends you trust
2. Choose which of them are your emergency contacts
3. Use a safety feature β an SOS, a check-in, a walk, a ride or a date
4. If something goes wrong, your contacts are alerted with your location
β WHO COMPASS IS FOR
β’ Students walking home from campus late
β’ Anyone meeting someone new from a dating app
β’ People riding home alone in a rideshare
β’ Solo hikers, runners and travellers
β’ Night-shift workers with a late commute
β’ Friends and families who want check-ins, not surveillance
β PRIVACY FIRST
Personal safety should not cost you your privacy. Compass records your position
continuously only during a walk, ride or date that you started β and it shows a
notification the whole time it is doing so, then stops on its own. There is no
always-on tracking and no silent monitoring.
Your safety records are deleted after 7 days unless something actually happens,
and we never sell your information β not your location, not anything.
You choose your emergency contacts, and you choose what you share.
β FAIR PRICING
Safety shouldn't be expensive. Compass is $3/month, and every new account starts
with a 14-day free trial β no card required.
Free accounts can always receive alerts from friends, so the people looking out
for you never have to pay. A subscription unlocks sending SOS alerts and using
the safety features yourself.
β IMPORTANT
Compass is not a substitute for emergency services. In a life-threatening
emergency, always call 911 or your local emergency number. Compass helps your
trusted contacts reach you and respond β it does not replace professional
emergency response and cannot guarantee a response or your safety.
Compass is a MySafeGuard product.
